NFL Experience Heaven For Football Fanatics

The love of football can unite a family. As a mother of a son who is a die-hard sports fanatic, it can be hard sometimes to try to find things to talk to him about. The daily conversations on how was his day at school or soccer practice can only take my talking time with him so far. The start of football season creates an excitement in the air. As a family, we plan our Sunday’s around what games are a must-see during football season. Living in a home of New England Patriot fans and New York Giant fans you can only imagine the rivalry and the trash talking. Regardless of what team we are rooting for the passion for football always brings us together.

I was so excited to announce to my family that to The NFL Experience was opening in Times Square an attraction that needs to be on your bucket list.
